No support what so ever!

published

Very disappointing! You can't get a hold of someone when you need support. We couldn't upgrade our plan through the website so they continued to charge us $35 for 1 GB per month.

Bank was charged for two recharges that were never applied to my account I'm now left without an active phone service and down on funds in a time of need. I have been on hold for 40 mins trying to resolve the issue. No help at all. Ridiculous. Poor service.

Biggest mistake is joining Woolworth mobile

published

I joined Woolworth mobile a week ago. Stil not connected and can not make call or receive. Have called customer support 3 times but no good result.. Eventually asked for refund. They did but i can not transfer my mobile number to new provider. As to confirm transfer i need to confirm verification code sending to me by text. Can't get verification code as stil not connected.
Sent email to Woolworth support and god knows when responded. I will not call again and wait an hour

Worse than rubbish

published

It's totally rubbish.

I have tried to activate my SIM card, managed to after no support . There is only a vicious cycle of phone message loop and chatbot that's useless. It took extra money from credit card and no service e- can I get any response. Have tried 4 times to go through the chat bot and ' customer service' only to be on empty chat screen for hours. Am so angry - I'm not going to shop at Woolworths!

Yes right - like the effort you went to with other ppl ? I just want my money back and I won’t shop at Woolworths doe anything. Woolworths- way to ruin a brand

Completely absent customer support

published

Unable to recharge service using multiple different cards, on both mobile app, mobile website and website from a PC. No live chat or telephone number available to get help. Now my school-aged son has no phone to use to let me know when to pick him up, and I'm stuck making a support ticket where I'm told they will "endeavour" to get back to me within 2 - 3 business days.

This is the only telco I've ever seen with no direct customer support at all. If I'd realised this was the case, I wouldn't have set both my children up using it. I'll be recommending other parents use another service.

it is a bit of a nightmare

published

to activate your sim you will interact with a robotic system that is not user friendly, and if you have a problem with it, you can not talk to a person to resolve it. So chances are if you buy a sim like I did it will be useless. The coverage may be good, but it's useless if you can't activate your sim in a simple manner.

Yes resolved because instead of waiting the estimated 48 hours for you lot to figure out why my sim was faulty and fix it, I asked for a refund.

So far so good

published

I've switched from Optus after many years, As woolworths appear to have better value for money. Was very surprised to get a shipping notification Monday night for my pre-ordered Samsung S20 and received it the next day, 3 days before launch! I had no issues activating and porting my old number over, took less than 20 minutes to get it all set up. No issues with service or network so far. Thanks for the smooth transition Woolworths!

Good service, but difficult to communicate with if there is an issue

published

I had a plan while I paid off my handset and then switched to prepaid. There was a glitch with SMS after the change to prepaid. I experienced great difficulty seeking help through the online chat. Multiple times, it said I was connected to someone but there was no further communication and I became very frustrated. Fortunately I found a number to talk to a real person and my issue was resolved. If ever you have an issue, call 1300793417. I requested a callback when I had to restart my phone so that I didn't have to wait in the cue again, and was duly called back. Despite this one communication issue, I have found Woolworths Mobile service is very good and very competitively priced. Please Woolworths, improve your online chat.

Questions & Answers

Infinity at Cuttagee

Infinity at Cuttageeasked

Hi, this morning I activated my Woolies $30 sim and received an email saying my mobile is up and running - problem is I can't receive calls or texts. No-one can get through to me, says my number is not connected! I've used a family member's phone to call myself to check, won't let me get text messages either. But I can call and successfully send texts, just not receive anything. HELP!! The fact there is no support is beyond frustrating. Really wishing I hadn't changed to them.
Odd thing is I can't see a 4G or 3G icon on phone like I used to with my other carrier.
What can I do? I've emailed their "support" and an auto reply message came through it could take 3-5 working days to answer. Crap!
Any help please?

HI
I purchased a 365Day Prepaid plan and the SimCard came with an Expiry of the 04/22. I have 2 questions:
1. Is there a timeframe/expiry of when i need to activate/port the number from another supplier from the date of receiving the sim card in the mail?
2. Does the 365Days start counting from the date of activation or the date of when the Sim Card arrived in the mail?

Thank you
Mick

Hello Michael,

Thank you for taking the time to contact Woolworths Mobile.

As per our T&C's you must activate the service within 6 months after purchase or before the sim expiry date, whichever comes first.

In this instance, the fact your sim card has advised an expiry date of 04/22, you will still be able to activate this sim card up until the date advised.

Also, the 365 Long Expiry sim card will only start counting from date of activation.

Please be advised you can also contact us directly 1300 793 417, our hours of operation are Mon - Fri 9 am - 5 pm & Sat 10 am - 4 pm (AEST).

Kind Regards,
The Woolworths Mobile Team

Hello,

Thank you for taking the time to contact Woolworths 'Mobile.

And yes that is correct.

If you purchase the sim card before the end of the promotion it will definitely still be available, again our sim cards have a 6 month expiry period.

Kind Regards,
